RE: Flushing in Soil is a Self-Reinforced Delusion, and It Doesn't Work The Way You Think It Does!
Ive always been taught to flush, and its because it i was told, never because i did research and came to a conclusion. I know i always fell good about it when i do it, and buds always seem to taste better then my buds picked before a flush. THis could be a placebo effect, or maybe its not. I know i really need to evolve my grow if its going to get any better. Im resteeming this so i can further read it and understand it, also to get this post more attention to further the discussion, cause i know i will still flush for the time being until my evolution. Its funny that im this way and im sure theirs alot of growers doing it for the same reasons as me.
Definitely not a placebo effect, I noticed this to and noticed this many times(I always grow on soil), I always give numbers to my plants.
Way back when I started I used to test it out.
Always produced smoother smoke with plants that were fed a water diet the last 2 weeks
Dont know why it happens, seems to make a very little but noticeable changes.
Like the smoke gets a little smoother, I bet its somehow something from the nutes that can give that harsh taste/feeling in the throat.
Yes it is the additives, and people who use additives probably do need to flush, but i think what our friend is getting at is we need to get away from these additives and go back to the basics.
